Welcome to the launch of our brand new podcast: WealthBuilders TV. Today Karen Conrad Metcalfe is interviewing Billy Epperhart, founder of WealthBuilders, CEO of Andrew Wommack Ministries, and Charis Bible College.
In this episode, Billy tells why now is a good time to start looking for real estate investment opportunities. Sellers are holding on to properties because of low interest rates, which has slowed the market, but hasn’t shut it down. He discusses the concept of standard deviation in finance, comparing the current stock market to historical highs and potential corrections. You’ll go behind the scenes and get insight into what’s happening now and how to think strategically about the future.
Join in as Billy encourages you to invest in yourself, understand the market, and seek wisdom from the Bible for your finances. Understanding Today’s Economic Climate (Part 1)
